Prior to starting my business I was in the Navy for 8 years as an Aviation Electrician working on F18C Legacy Aircraft. I have a total of 2 deployments one on CVN-69 the Dwight D. Eisenhower and CVN-75 the Harry S. Truman. Aviation has been a huge influence in my working career and operating drones is just another extension of that experience. I strive to bring the same level of hard work, excellence and attention to detail I learned in the Navy to every job, big or small. While I try and focus on the commercial thermal inspection side of the drone business. I do like to operate Full Axis Control FPV Drones for some free style action, and unique shots not offered to standard GPS drones.
My personal qualifications, I have my FAA Part 107 commercial drone operators license. Received training at the Infrared Training Center (ITC) and completed the Level 1 sUAS Thermography Certification. I have also completed my OSHA 30 hour training as well.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a thermography inspection?
Thermography lets us see into the infrared spectrum revealing hidden anomalies that the human eye and standard visual inspections can not see. An example would be water trapped between the roof deck and the rubber layer, the water soaked areas will have a different thermal reading than the healthy portion of the roof.
When is the ideal time for thermography inspections?
48 – 72 hours after heavy rainfall and 2 hours after sunset.
Is 0 to 400 Drone Services certified?
Yes, we hold FAA Part 107 Commercial Drone Pilot, Level 1 sUAS Thermography Certified, and OSHA 30 Certifications.
What is your process for finding lost pets?
Typically we deploy the thermal drone in targeted search areas based on the pet’s last known location. Thermal imaging is most effective about 1 hour before sunset, at night, and up to 1 hour after sunrise. Thermal imaging is not effective during the heat of the day with the exception of heavy overcast days.
What is needed to search for my pet?
A picture of the lost animal, an address the animal was last seen, someone the animal is familiar with to make the approach and capture.
